The Unopened Market Report #5

An Incredible Hockey Wrapper Collection, 1961 Nu-Card Baseball Scoops Boxes, Recent Unopened Sales, And Late '70s Topps Rack Packs

Welcome to the Fifth Unopened Market Report!

This week, I’ve got the most incredible collection of hockey wrappers the hobby will EVER see, a look into 1961 Nu-Card Baseball Scoops wax boxes, some interesting unopened sales, and I’ll share where a few stars should be in legit late ‘70s Topps rack packs. By the way, do you think instead of “Rack” I should use the historical “Rak”?

Also, in case you're new here, Thursday’s Post War Cards Newsletter remains free weekly; the Unopened Market Report is the newsletter’s paid tier.

🏒 A Historic Hockey Wrapper Auction

Classic Auctions, The World’s Largest Hockey Memorabilia and Cards Auction House, closed its February auction on the 18th. One of the standout lots they highlighted was a case of 24 1978 OPC Baseball boxes, which sold for $42,955.

While that case drew plenty of attention, I think the highlight(s) was the incredible run of iCert-graded hockey wrappers.
